Michaels Home From Hospital After Appendectomy Surgery

Rocker Bret Michaels has been released from hospital following emergency surgery to remove his appendix on Monday (12Apr10).

The former Poison frontman underwent an emergency appendectomy in a San Antonio, Texas hospital after a scan showed his appendix was ready to burst.

He was kept under doctors' supervision for fear of complications after his temperature fluctuated following the surgery, which is often a sign of infection. But on Wednesday (14Apr10), medics released him from their care to recuperate at home, according to the San Antonio Business Journal. (CL/WNWCBBM/LR)
